Security forces have killed six Indian-sponsored terrorists during an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Panjgur district of Balochistan, according to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The military’s media wing said the operation was conducted between June 3 and 4 following reports about the presence of terrorists belonging to the Indian proxy group “Fitna al Hindustan” in the area.
During the operation, security forces effectively engaged multiple terrorist hideouts. After an intense exchange of fire, six terrorists were killed.

In a statement, the ISPR said the counterterrorism campaign under the vision of “Azm-e-Istehkam,” approved by the Federal Apex Committee under the National Action Plan, will continue at full pace.
